I have tried a few but they all seem to be putting the priority on features I don’t need, like recording the sounds while I sleep. I would just like a log of when I fall asleep and when I wake up.

EDIT: Here is my plan B, until I find an app: when I go to bed, I send a text message to myself. When I wake up, I do the same. It gets automatically time-stamped. Example:

“Ok Google, send a text saying Good Night to NemoWuming”

“Ok Google, send a text saying Good Morning to NemoWuming”

    I have a cheap smartwatch (amazfit bip) that tracks sleep and I have found it to be very accurate for me. I assume it tracks when I fall asleep based on heart rate and movement?

    Anyways it plays nicely with my android phone and only cost about $50 and honestly I’m pretty happy with it! I was pretty skeptical at first but it’s really handy as a fitness tracker too and I feel like it encourages me to stand up and exercise more.

    I also have a somewhat erratic sleep schedule and it’s nice to know when I’m starting to get into a sleep deficit and need to get caught up.

      I have a Bip as well, and aside from the silly name I love it. Even after 5 years a single charge lasts more than a month.

      It tracks my sleep and steps, and is always on (other smartwatches turn the display off to save the battery).

      It doesn’t do all the fanciest things. I can’t answer phone calls or send text messages (it will display received messages), but the advantages far away the drawbacks.
